Apache software is free software.

For those able & willing to support my work, I accept *unconditional, no-strings-attached* donations in the form of **GPU cloud credit** (and soon, via GitHub Sponsors). This helps me run experiments and train models.
|
| 6 |
+
|
| 7 |
+
Please do not "attach strings" to donations since I cannot serve them through donation channels (that includes model requests, consulting, brand sponsorships).
|
| 8 |
+
|

+
Also, along the lines of "Never buy a product based on the future promise of updates", I would discourage you from donating because you expect a specific model to come down the pipeline. Hopefully, donors broadly believe that good things happen when [someone gets this man (yours truly) a GPU](https://i.redd.it/r8dtt3n9rc431.jpg).

To transfer $5 of credit directly to my Vast.ai account `hello@hexgrad.com`, you can use `transfer credit` in the Vast CLI like so:
|
| 16 |
+
|
| 17 |
+
```sh
|
| 18 |
+
vastai transfer credit hello@hexgrad.com 5
|
| 19 |
+
```
|
| 20 |
+
|
| 21 |
+
The usage of the `transfer credit` command is documented here: https://docs.vast.ai/api/commands#voyTE
|
| 22 |
+
|
| 23 |
+
```sh
|
| 24 |
+

### RunPod Referral Link
|
| 34 |

RunPod is another vendor I use for cloud GPUs. I earn "5% from serverless and 1% from templates": https://runpod.io?ref=pup8o2ly

+
### RunPod Credit Codes
|
| 37 |
+
After signing in to RunPod, under `Account > Billing > Credit Codes`, you can "generate a code that allows you to gift funds to another RunPod user":
|
| 38 |
+
|
| 39 |
+
> Simply give them the code and they will be able to redeem it for credits on their billing page. Please safeguard your codes as they are worth money!
|
| 40 |
+
> Credits will be debited from your account immediately. You can redeem the code yourself if you want to recover your credits. There is a 2% transaction fee for payment processing!
|
| 41 |
+
|
| 42 |
+
If you wish to send codes, you can do so by email `hello@hexgrad.com`, or DM me on Discord `@rzvzn`.
